Innovative Performance Chip/Power

What do you guys think about this chip? I really never do anything performance wise to any care nor do I know a lot about this type of stuff.

I wouldn't waste money on this. I don't see how this would help the vehicle increase both power and gas mileage. The vehicle is aiming to reach 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio for the ideal balance of power and mileage. Anything that changes this will throw off the balance, but I don't see increase in both if any increase at all. Wonder how this even plugs in.

Yeah no idea either that is why I asked. Plenty of 370 Z owners swear by it. But I'd rather Maxima owners test it and see for a true test or any other chip for that matter.

Have you seen any dyno results? I highly doubt that it would produce very very minimum if anything.
